Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2020 in the subject Environmental Sciences, language: English, abstract: We analyzed these variations related to communities in the vicinity of the airports. Also, we examined the impact of these pollutants on the morbidity and mortality rate of the COVID-19 virus. Our study shows that: air pollution reduced in communities around the airport during the lockdown and low operations; areas downwind and in the vicinity of the airport recorded high incidence and mortality during the pandemic. These changes in pollution, incidence, and mortality are represented in charts available in the research study. Air pollution is a critical issue in urban cities. While air pollution has been reduced in some cities, its effect on human health is considerable. In this study, data for air pollutants, mainly oxides of Nitrogen and Particulate matter, was observed for variations before and during the pandemic lockdown from three airports in two countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FAA estimates that the number of flights in the U.S. will increase 20% by 2024. It also has identified numerous airports that will need to expand to handle more flights. However, increasing airport capacity and operations poses potentially significant impacts on the environment and quality of life for surrounding communities. This report addresses: (1) airports' actions to reduce their environmental impacts; (2) the extent airports believe environmental issues delay development or operational changes; and (3) the strategies airports can adopt to address environmental issues. The report surveyed the 150 busiest airports as measured by the number of operations. Illus. This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find report.

Download or read book HC 389 The Airports Commission Report Carbon Emissions Air Quality and Noise written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Environmental Audit Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2015 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this inquiry was to examine the Government's willingness to address the significant environmental implications of the Airports Commission's recommendation in relation to carbon emissions, air quality and noise. It was not to reopen the debate over airport capacity expansion, nor to reopen the debate over locations of additional capacity. If the Government decides to accept the Commission's recommendation, we will invite the Secretary of State for Transport to give evidence to the Committee on the Government's approach to these issues. If the Government decides to go ahead with the Commission's recommended option, it needs to demonstrate a step change in their approach to mitigating the environmental impact. Ministers will need a high degree of certainty that their own policies are robust enough to deliver the mitigations required. They will need to set out, before making the final decision to go ahead, clear and binding responsibilities and milestones to ensure environmental standards are enforced and measures can be implemented, monitored and evaluated in a timely way. Failure to do so could see the project caught up in protracted legal disputes, lead to environmental standards being missed and introduce an element of commercial risk.

Download or read book The Airliner Cabin Environment and the Health of Passengers and Crew written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-02-03 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although poor air quality is probably not the hazard that is foremost in peoples' minds as they board planes, it has been a concern for years. Passengers have complained about dry eyes, sore throat, dizziness, headaches, and other symptoms. Flight attendants have repeatedly raised questions about the safety of the air that they breathe. The Airliner Cabin Environment and the Health of Passengers and Crew examines in detail the aircraft environmental control systems, the sources of chemical and biological contaminants in aircraft cabins, and the toxicity and health effects associated with these contaminants. The book provides some recommendations for potential approaches for improving cabin air quality and a surveillance and research program.
